And it came to pass that in those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan.

And they were all amazed, so that they questioned each other, saying, What is this? New teaching with authority; even the unclean spirits doth he command, and they obey him!

And in the evening, when the sun had set, they brought to him all that were sick, and those who were possessed by demons;

And he healed many that were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons; and he suffered not the demons to speak, because they knew him.

And he saith to them, Let us go elsewhere into the neighboring towns, that I may preach there also; for, for this I came forth.

saying to him, See that thou say nothing to any one; but go, show thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing what Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.

But he went away, and began to publish it constantly, and to spread the matter abroad, so that Jesus could no more enter a city openly, but was without in desert places; and they came to him from every quarter.

And after some days he again entered Capernaum; and it was reported that he was in the house.

And many were gathered together, so that there was no longer room for them, even at the door; and he was speaking the word to them.

And they come to him, bringing one that was palsied, borne by four men.

And Jesus immediately perceiving in his spirit that they reasoned thus within themselves, saith to them, Why do ye reason thus in your hearts?

But that ye may know that the Son of man hath authority on earth to forgive sins,he saith to the palsied man,

And he arose, and immediately took up the bed and went forth before them all; so that they were all amazed, and gave glory to God, saying, We never saw it thus.

And it happened that he was reclining at table in his house; and many publicans and sinners were reclining with Jesus and his disciples; for there were many, and scribes of the Pharisees were also following him.

And when they saw that he was eating with the publicans and sinners, they said to his disciples, Doth he eat and drink with publicans and sinners?

But the days will come, when the bridegroom will be taken from them, and then will they fast in that day.

And it came to pass, that he was going through the grainfields on the sabbath, and his disciples began, as they went along, to pluck the ears of grain.

And the Pharisees said to him, See, why are they doing on the sabbath that which is not lawful?

So that the Son of man is lord even of the sabbath.

and they watched him, whether he would heal him on the sabbath, that they might accuse him.

And he gave direction to his disciples, that a boat should be in readiness for him because of the multitude, that they might not throng him.

For he had healed many, so that as many as had plagues pressed upon him to touch him.

And he strictly charged them that they should not make him known.

and James the son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James; and he surnamed them Boanerges, that is, Sons of thunder;

And again a multitude cometh together, so that they could not so much as eat bread.

And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand;

and if a house be divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand;

but he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Spirit hath no forgiveness forever, but is exposed to everlasting sin.

And again he began to teach by the shore of the lake; and there was gathered to him a very great multitude, so that he went into a boat, and sat down in it upon the lake; and all the multitude was by the lake on the land.

And he said, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

And these are they by the wayside, those where the word is sown, and when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in them.

And these in like manner are they that are sown on the rocky places, those, who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with joy,

And others are they that are sown among the thorns; these are they who hear the word,

For there is nothing secret, unless to be made known; nor was any thing hidden, but that it should come to light.

For he that hath, to him will be given; and he that hath not, from him will be taken away even what he hath.

It is like a grain of mustard, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that are in the earth;

and when it is sown, it grows up, and becomes greater than all the herbs, and puts forth great branches, so that the birds of the air can lodge under its shade.

And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves heat into the boat, so that it was already filling.

And he was in the stern, asleep on the pillow; and they awake him, and say to him, Teacher, carest thou not that we are perishing?

And he said to them, Why are ye so fearful? How is it that ye have not faith?

And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, Who then is this, that even the wind and the waves obey him?

And they besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.

And they that fed them fled, and told the news in the city and in the country. And they came to see what had been done.

And they who saw it told them how it befell him that was possessed by the demons, and concerning the swine.

And when he was going on board the boat, he that had been possessed by the demons besought him that be might be with him.

And he did not permit him, but said to him, Go to thy house to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and that he hath had compassion on thee.

and besought him much, saying, My little daughter lieth at the point of death; I pray thee, come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be saved and live.

and had undergone much at the hands of many physicians, and spent all that she had, and was not at all benefited, but rather grew worse,

And immediately the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she perceived in her body that she was cured of her plague.

And Jesus immediately perceiving in himself that power had gone out from him, turned round in the crowed, and said, Who touched my garments?

And he charged them strictly that no one should know it, and bade that something should be given her to eat.

And when the sabbath was come, he began to teach in the synagogue. And most people when they heard him were astonished, saying, Whence hath this man these things? And what is the wisdom which is given him? And how is it that such miracles are wrought by his hands?

And he could not do any miracle there, except that he laid his hand upon a few sick persons, and cured them.

and commanded them that they should take nothing for the way but a staff only; no bread, no bag, no money in their girdle;

And he said to them, Wherever ye enter a house, there abide fill ye leave that place.

And they went out and preached that men should repent;

For Herod feared John, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man, and was regardful of him; and on hearing him, was in much anxiety, and listened to him gladly.

And she came in immediately with haste to the king, and asked, saying, I desire that thou wilt give me immediately on a platter the head of John the Baptist.

send them away, that they may go into the surrounding fields and villages, and buy themselves something to eat.

ran through all that region, and began to carry about on beds those that were sick to the place where they heard he was.

And wherever he entered into villages or cities or the open country, they laid the sick in the marketplaces, and besought him that they might touch if it were but the fringe of his garment; and as many as touched him were made well.

and seeing some of his disciples eating bread with defiled, that is, unwashed hands,

And he said to them, Full well do ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your tradition!

For Moses said, "Honor thy father and thy mother;" and, "He that curseth father or mother, let him surely die."

But ye say, If a man say to his father or mother, Whatever thou mightst receive in aid from me is Corban, that is, a gift to God, [he is not bound by the command. Thus]

Nothing that entereth into a man from without can defile him; but the things that come out of him are what defile a man.

And he saith to them, Are ye too so without discernment? Do ye not understand that whatever thing from without entereth into a man, cannot defile him?

And he said, That which cometh out of a man, that defileth a man.

And rising up, he departed thence into the borders of Tyre; and entering into a house, he desired that no one should know it; but he could not escape notice.

The woman was a Greek, a Syrophoenician by nation; and she besought him that he would cast out the demon from her daughter.

And they bring to him one that was deaf, and had an impediment in his speech, and beseech him to lay his hand upon him.

and looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith to him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.

And they ate, and were filled; and they took up of the fragments that remained, seven baskets.

And Jesus went out, and his disciples, into the villages of Caesarea Philippi. And on the way he asked his disciples, saying to them, Who do men say that I am?

And he asked them, But who do ye say that I am? Peter answering saith to him, Thou art the Christ.

And he began to teach them that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and the scribes, and be put to death, and after three days rise again;

And he said to them, Truly do I say to you, There are some of those standing here who will not taste of death, till they have seen that the kingdom of God hath come with power.

And they asked him, saying, How is it that the Pharisees and scribes say that Elijah must come first?

And he said to them, Elijah cometh first, and restoreth all things. And how hath it been written of the Son of man? that he must suffer many things, and be set at nought.

But I say to you that Elijah hath come, and they have done to him whatever they would; as it hath been written concerning him.

Jesus said to him, If thou art able? All things are possible for him that believeth.

And Jesus seeing that the multitude came running together, rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, Dumb and deaf spirit, I command thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.

And uttering a cry, and convulsing him much, it came out of him. And he became as one dead; so that very many said, He is dead.

And departing thence, they passed through Galilee; and he would not that any one should know it.

Whoever receiveth one of these children in my name, receiveth me; and whoever receiveth me, receiveth not me, but him that sent me.

For he that is not against us is for us.

And whoever shall cause one of these little ones that believe to fall away, it would be better for him to have a great millstone hung round his neck, and be cast into the sea.

And if thy hand cause thee to fall away, cut it off. It is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having the two hands to go away into hell, into the fire that is unquenchable.

And they brought children to him, that he might touch them; and the disciples rebuked those that brought them.

And as he was going out into the way, a certain one running up and kneeling to him, asked him, Good teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit everlasting life?

And Jesus said to him, Why dost thou call me good? None is good but one, that is, God.

But his countenance fell at that saying, and he went away sorrowful; for he had great possessions.

who will not receive a hundredfold in the time that now is, houses, and brothers, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions, and in the world to come everlasting life.

And they were on the road, going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus was leading the way; and they were amazed, and they that followed were afraid. And again taking the twelve aside, he began to tell them what things were about to befall him:

And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, come to him, saying to him, Teacher, we would that thou shouldst do for us whatever we shall ask thee.

And he said to them, What would ye that I should do for you?

And they said to him, Grant to us that we may sit, one on thy right hand and one on thy left, in thy glory.

But Jesus said to them, Ye know not what ye ask. Can ye drink the cup that I drink, or be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?

And they said to him, We can. And Jesus said to them, Ye will drink the cup that I drink, and ye will be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with;

And Jesus, calling them to him, saith to them, Ye know that they who are accounted to rule over the nations lord it over them, and their great men exercise a strict authority over them.
